About Svetlana

Experience: 10 yrs

My 10 years of experience as a Respiratory Therapist have shaped my deep commitment to supporting seniors and their families. I hold a college degree and am fully trained in CPR and First Aid. My professional background allows me to provide expert respite care, hospice support, and medical management. I excel at navigating memory care needs, including redirecting attention during moments of agitation and adapting to changing daily routines. I worked for patients with Parkinson's , diabetes, COPD , post surgical care. I am a compassionate and detail-oriented caregiver who prioritizes creating a comfortable, safe environment for those I serve. Whether providing home health support or dementia care, I ensure families stay informed through their preferred method of communication, whether by text, phone, or in-person updates. I am also very comfortable around pets. My goal is to be a reliable partner in your loved one's journey, including light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation.

Svetlana is fantastic. Living in the Bay Area, I needed to find help for my 84 year old mother living alone in the San Fernando Valley, and fast. Her condition had deteriorated - depression, anxiety, insomnia were taking their tole. I reached out to some caregivers on care.com, Svetlana stood out for her compassion and willingness to help. She has turned out to be just what my Mom needed. It is the engagement with my Mom, getting to know her, helping her get out and do things, that has helped bring my Mom back to the dynamic person she is. In addition to functioning as such a wonderful senior companion, Svetlana has extensive experience working in medicine and patient care, so are in good hands on all fronts. Thank you Svetlana!
